Funds raised from generous sponsors and guests at the industry-recognised Menopause Friendly Employer Awards are ensuring the Daisy Network charity can provide vital counselling services to support young women diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI), also known as Premature Menopause.

35 NHS trusts have taken this a step further by working towards Menopause Friendly Accreditation. These NHS employers are committed to making real change to the lived experience of colleagues.

Menopause Friendly Accreditation is industry-recognised and the only accreditation that sets clear standards which have to be met before an employer can achieve this distinction. As a result, it is truly meaningful and considered by many as a kitemark of excellence for menopause in the workplace.

The Rt Hon Caroline Nokes MP and Chair of the Women and Equalities Select Committee, is calling on 50% of British businesses to take action to have a menopause policy in place.

As World Menopause Day approaches, we welcome this year's theme of cognition and mood.

Our leading industry-recognised Menopause Friendly Employer Awards - powered by HSBC UK, first direct and M&S Bank – revealed its winners at a wonderful evening of celebration on Thursday September 22, 2022 at the Leonardo Royal Hotel, St Paul’s.
